As he was pondering.

Suddenly, a voice sounded outside.

"Is Qin Qi here?"

Qin Qi listened and expanded his Divine Sense to perceive the situation outside.

"Oh?"

He got up and opened the door, discovering two people standing there, a man and a woman.

The woman was Ming Lan, and the other was one of Bai Qingrou’s disciples, Ma Sandao!

Seeing this, Qin Qi smiled and said, "Sister Ming Lan, Brother Ma, you’re here to see me. What might it be about?"

Ma Sandao chuckled and said, "Sister Ming Lan arrived ahead of me and has been waiting for you for several days. Seeing you always in seclusion, she didn’t disturb!"

"There’s still priority, let her explain first!"

Ming Lan smiled at Ma Sandao, "Thank you, Brother Ma!"

She then turned her gaze to Qin Qi.

Qin Qi straightforwardly said, "What Sister Ming Lan mentioned, I reckon it’s about the Land of Overflowing Spirits!"

Ming Lan smiled sweetly, "That’s right, Qin Qi. As mentioned earlier, the Land of Overflowing Spirits is about to open. Now, to remind you, there are only a few days left before it opens!"

"I’m afraid in a couple of days, Qin Qi will have to prepare!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Qi secretly pondered.

Damn!

Time flies so quickly!

Though, it’s true, I’ve been in seclusion for several days!

However, although I promised Ming Lan, Bai Qingrou hasn’t agreed yet. I must get Bai Qingrou’s approval before I can leave with them smoothly.

Still, convincing this woman isn’t going to be easy!

"Hmm?"

Soon, Qin Qi thought of something.

Bai Qingrou sent Ma Sandao over...

"Looks like this woman can’t suppress the flames in her heart anymore!"

Thinking this, he slightly raised the corners of his lips and responded, "Sister, rest assured, I’ll be well-prepared in these few days."

"Then, shall we set off in the evening three days later?" Ming Lan gently suggested.

Qin Qi immediately nodded, "Sure, no problem!"

Ming Lan then smiled sweetly and said, "Then, if that’s the case, I won’t disturb your conversation with Brother Ma!"

With that, she made a motion to leave.

Qin Qi turned his gaze to Ma Sandao.

Ma Sandao politely said, "Brother Qin Qi, I’ve come this time because my master wants you to come over."

Though Qin Qi had already guessed Bai Qingrou’s intentions, he still asked, "Brother Ma, do you know what the Holy Maiden wants me for?"

"Master didn’t say, just instructed me to call you over. You know, when she doesn’t say, I wouldn’t dare ask!" Ma Sandao said with bitterness and humility.

Qin Qi stroked his chin, "Makes sense, fine, if that’s the case, then take me there!"

"Great!" Ma Sandao laughed heartily.

In a short while, led by Ma Sandao, Qin Qi arrived at the courtyard of Bai Qingrou’s pavilion.

After bringing him, Ma Sandao spoke, "Brother Qin Qi, since I’ve brought you here, I’ll take my leave!"

"Alright!" Qin Qi responded.

Immediately, he stepped inside.

Just after entering the pavilion, Qin Qi saw that Bai Qingrou appeared to have specially refined her makeup today.

She wore the same pure white long dress as before, sitting before the guzheng, her slender hand gently lifting and falling.

Showing off her musical skills once again.

Qin Qi remained silent, the corners of his mouth gradually turned up, observing Bai Qingrou’s beauty from head to toe.

It must be said, after a little makeup, Bai Qingrou’s beauty stands out even more, radiating and extraordinarily stunning!

With the sound of music gradually rising, Qin Qi whispered to himself, "This woman, dressed so beautifully, specifically displaying her musical skills when I arrived..."

It’s meant just for me.

In simple terms,

This is courting!

He smiled, quietly watching Bai Qingrou show off, waiting for the song to end, Bai Qingrou seemed to only then notice Qin Qi’s presence.

She slowly lifted her head, using what she thought was her most beautiful angle, revealed it in Qin Qi’s view.

"Oh? When did you arrive? I was too focused on playing and didn’t notice you!" Bai Qingrou’s red lips slightly parted, her tone indifferent.

Hearing this, Qin Qi was gleeful inside.

Keep pretending!

This woman, even if she desires deeply, won’t admit a single word.

However, not ready to expose her, he courteously said, "Responding to the Holy Maiden, I’ve just arrived. Listening to the Holy Maiden’s music, I was truly captivated by it and profoundly impressed by your musical skills!"

"Oh? You understand music?" Bai Qingrou raised an eyebrow, her gaze fixed on Qin Qi.

Qin Qi was instantly stunned.

He doesn’t know a thing about music, just flattery!

Who’d have thought, she’d ask him this.

If he answers poorly, it’s like praising on the wrong note.

This time, the Celestial Joyful Witch spoke, "Hmph, say you felt the melancholy of past events in the music and..."

Being taught hands-on by the mysterious woman.

Qin Qi didn’t falter, solemnly saying, "I dare to presume, from the Holy Maiden’s music, I felt the melancholy of past events, it seems the Holy Maiden has much on her mind. Clearly, you’re nostalgic!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Qingrou’s body trembled slightly, her eyes full of disbelief as she looked at Qin Qi.

Because Qin Qi’s words were spot on.

"You..."

Bai Qingrou, amazed, Qin Qi understands her music?

She once thought this young man could only please her physically, but now seemed he might even please her soul.

This caused her heartbeat to quicken significantly, a feeling she only had in her girlhood.

She gazed intensely at Qin Qi, but quickly composed herself, "It’s unexpected you truly understand!"

Qin Qi, hearing this, was filled with wonder.

How did the mysterious woman see it?

He chose not to dwell more on this uncertain question, as he truly didn’t understand.

He shifted, "What might the Holy Maiden summon me here for?"

"Indeed, there are some important matters..."

With that, Bai Qingrou said, "Recently, how’s your cultivation progressing?"

"Uh, alright, but you know, cultivation advancement isn’t a matter of a day or two, wanting to advance in a short time is not easy!" Qin Qi said.

Bai Qingrou lightly parted her lips, "Hmm, your ability is particularly useful against the Evil Demon, so I’ve summoned you to ask about your cultivation status!"

Qin Qi scratched his head, "Is that all the Holy Maiden wanted to ask?"

Bai Qingrou appeared slightly bashful, then cleared her throat twice, "I’m telling you, if you ever need help with cultivation or face a bottleneck, come to me!"

She thought, with such a hint, Qin Qi should understand.

After all, with Dual Cultivation, both can enhance each other’s cultivation...
